We’ve sadly taken the decision to close our grounds and gardens to help restrict the spread
of coronavirus. We urge people to stay local and observe social distancing. Please do not travel.
This follows the closure of pubs, restaurants, cafes, gyms and leisure centres announced by the government, and tightening travel restrictions and public health advice.
For further information on future castle opening please refer to the website or social media.

Take a look at the exciting events we have got coming up at the Castle during 2020.
Gwrych Castle Preservation Trust is looking to recruit an Administrator as part of our Resilient Heritage Project which is looking at the long term plans for the castle whilst it also operates as a visitor attraction.
Our vision is to secure a vibrant and sustainable future for Gwrych Castle and the built structures within
its designed landscape, making them appealing, accessible and inspiring places for new and existing audiences to visit, support and enjoy, now and for years to come.
Celebrating the ideals of the picturesque movement in the early-nineteenth century – discovery, invention and exploration – we will bring them vividly to life for our twenty-first century audiences through inspiring interpretation and activities that create fascinating links between house, landscape and people.
